Looks By Larissa: Luxe Fur Jacket

I walked downtown with friends this Saturday and dropped into Nordstrom’s Rack. I was drawn to the coat section, permeated as it was with this season’s luxe furs, but this faux fur Democracy jacket stood apart; it is so soft and warm. I love the way it’s draped, and it is truly a unique piece. I wore it out of the store because I couldn’t resist waiting one more moment, and it was the perfect way to complete my outfit, an H&M basic black dress.

This dress is so simple, but the cut and lines are flattering. It can be dressed up with the right accessories or worn by itself for a super casual aesthetic! My leg warmers were also purchased at H&M. They are comfy and easily adjustable. To top it off, I wore my favorite boots from Dolce Vita. After my excursion downtown, several of my friends complimented me on my recent purchase, which only made me fall more in love with it!

Veiny Tights?

Umm, yeah. Well here are some tights I found while surfing the net today. Takes a whole new meaning to veiny. Who ever would want to wear these? Seriously? I mean please tell me what you might wear these with! I think on Halloween with a nurse outfit it might work but other than that I don't think these would be too attractive. Besides, I'm all about black anyway. But hey guys, what do you think? Do you find these offensive?

Sound Off: A New Trend that Must Be Stopped

It's not dorky glasses or mom jeans or even those weird chin/lip piercings. It's far more offensive than that.

We're talking about shorts, people. Not just any shorts though--cutoffs. Cutoffs with tights.

Who is responsible for this? Probably some celebrity who saw some cold homeless person who had to make due. And if I saw someone who looked poor or homeless, I would not judge--but I certainly wouldn't copy them. Besides, the only people I've seen wear this are rich college kids.

So please, please if you are guilty of this gawdawful fashion statement, reassess before you leave your home. Unless you are painting houses or coming home from dance class, put on some article clothing that covers your legs in one garment (i.e. pants).

Stockholm Winter Style Shot

Here is a shot straight from the streets of Stockholm Sweden. From a country who is used to very frigid winters, they show us cold weather doesn't mean you need to leave your sense of style at home. We love the whole color scheme going on here, the winter white scarf and hat with matching socks, black coat and then a splash of color with the purple tights. The Mary Jane shoes finish this look making it ultra feminine and adorable.

If you're in a cold climate don't put all of your cute dresses away for the winter. Some dresses can still be worn in the winter, you just need to add tights and socks. Done deal! :)
